Your rights as a consumer.

Whether you financed the purchase of your Audi or you are leasing it, collision insurance is required. This helps protect you and the finance company by helping to ensure sufficient funds are available to repair the vehicle in case of a collision. Certain consumer rights are included with the purchase of an automotive insurance policy.1

• The insurance company must provide you a copy of your policy. Read it carefully to make sure you understand your rights under the terms of the policy.

• You may cancel or change insurance at any time. You don’t have to wait until your policy is up for renewal.2

• While an insurer may recommend a repair facility, you have the right to decide where to have your Audi repaired, unless that right is limited by your insurance policy.2

• Please have your insurance company contact Audi of America for details on the Audi Authorized Collision Repair Program.

• By choosing an Audi Authorized Collision Repair Facility,4 you help ensure that the correct parts and procedures are used to repair your Audi.

In the event of a collision, we suggest the following:
